I'm in Madison, CT, and I've been playing Rhythm Guitar (& Bass) since the early 70's.
I play acoustic guitar, now: no distortion, just a clean amplified boost.
.
I do all original music.
.
My Band is called the 'Alan Bradley Group.'
Me: Musics, Lyrics, Guitar vocals, sound recording, production, advertising . . . floor sweeping . . .
Jill Bowen: vocals
Joe Cavanagh: Bass and Vocals
Chris Lennox: Harmonica and vocals.
.
Most of my songs are between styles; blues, jazz, rock, jazz, funk, jazz, folk, jazz, swing, jazz, easy listening, jazz, boogie, jazz, some finger-picking, mostly instrumentals . . .
.
Get my drift?
:)
A lotta jazzy sounding stuff . . .
.
I like a lot of styles . . . . but . . .
> > > No Metal, Rap, Punk, no screaming < < <
.
I like hundreds of other styles . . . most music; but nothing 'angry sounding.'
I don’t listen much to other artists anymore, but I used to listen to:
Beatles, Yes, Santana, Blues Brothers, Leo Kottke, Steely Dan, Doobie Brothers, Brian Setzer, Led Zeppelin, Moody Blues, Skynyrd, Credence, Alman Brothers, Jeff Beck, Mamas & the Pappas, Aerosmith, Beethovan, ELP, REM, Frampton, Grover Washington, Sade, Tangerine Dream, C S N & Y, Cheryl Crow, Enya, Duran Duran, Strauss, Jefferson Airplane/Starship, Madonna, Pink Floyd, 3 Dog Night, Doors, Depeche Mode, Queen, Cars, JJ Cale, Jethro Tull, K.T. Tunstal, Pink Floyd, Peter Paul & Mary. . . many, many others.
.
Now, after 35 + years, I have over 80 originals, and over 50 copyrighted songs. . . .
Anyone local play a Hammer Dulcimer or a flute?
.
I'm pretty easy-going . . . all of us are pretty laid-back . . .
.
Rehearsals most Tuesday nights from 6 - 9.
My goals:
1) ENJOY playing the music.
2) Get the music into as many ears as possible.
3) Make a few dollars doing it.
4) See #1
